Too early to start thinking about your Halloween costume? Hardly. Remember there are only two more weekends until the sainted holiday, and some of these costume ideas will take some sawing or sewing.

4. This is the hamburger equivalent of Chucky, a slack-jawed demon who will suck you into that smiling smacker. Note the genetic mutation of only three fingers on the right hand!

3. This is the costume to don if part of your Halloween evening is devoted to dancing.

2. We love this costume precisely because of how unflattering it is and how much it looks like a pumpkin impersonating a hamburger.

1. Talk about scary! This costume, perfect in every detail, makes the wearer look a bit crazed. That’s a high compliment for a costume.
